However, both are dependent on effective procurement and suppliers. Problems can arise if proper resources are not available at the right time. The critical chain method will require more time to get tasks accomplished and may cause project overruns. The critical path method can use the slack in the schedule to help accelerate lagging schedules in other paths. In the other hand, Critical Chain schedules can be met quickly for resources are focused on tasks at hand. It uses buffers at the path intersections and recesses between project end and project to protect schedules. When the slack in the critical path method is wisely used, the schedule will be eventually protected. An astute use of the buffers is move intended to make up for the tight scheduling and strategic accounting of the slack. If crashing would be needed in the process would be better that the buffers are at the beginning than at the ends of paths of the project because crashing could prove difficult towards the end of a project. Consequently, such eventuality could result in project overruns. However, in the course of time the Critical Path will change many times in the Critical Chain method Due to the methods of task estimation between critical path (deterministic) and critical chain (probabilistic), although this may add to the length of the project. Naturally, the critical path method appears to be the better of the two methods.
